Healing your nervous system helps your whole being heal. But how is this so? Let me share why NS healing is so essential to your overall wellbeing...
Your nervous system is the brain of your unconscious mind. That is the part of you that controls 95-97% of everything you do, think, feel and believe.
It's job is to store information that will help you avoid problems in the future, and also it runs your body so that you can breathe without having to consciously think about it.
Your unconscious mind runs your body, and all the things that happen automatically like renewing cells, and digesting food. But when you are in stress, your body turns this function off and averts all energy into getting you safe and away from danger.
So to keep you safe, your unconscious mind tries to remember all the pain, all the trauma, all the negative experiences, so that if you notice anything that looks like that again in the future, it can help you avoid it.
You would think that is helpful, but actually it's hurting you... A LOT.
By keeping its attention on everything that could go wrong, your nervous system is making you sick, diverting energy away from healing and repairing your cells, and producing adrenaline and cortisol instead.
So your digestion switches off and you end up with bloating, IBS, reflux, and your doctor never tells you it's because you are in a state of chronic stress.
But people who study the nervous system know that getting your nervous system into a state where it naturally has the ability to heal your whole body. And not just your physical body, but also your emotional and mental bodies as well.
